Below, I translated the lyrics of the song Escolho Você by Sandy from Portuguese to English.
Life is short
But dreams are not
I laugh at the past
I wait for the future with a knife in hand
I define every step I take
My choices reveal who I am
And I choose you with all your flaws
And that twisted way of being
I choose you, imperfect destiny
All flesh, bone, and confusion
Those who live by principles
Have no means, no ends
I break my own laws
Because only then do they belong to me
And I, who have always been part of the "maybe" group
I threw myself into "yes" without a parachute
And I choose you with all your flaws
And that twisted way of being
I choose you, imperfect destiny
All flesh, bone, and confusion
There's no need to try to justify
If it was my heart that decided for me
But if the choice were mine
I would choose you anyway
I choose you with all your flaws
And that twisted way of being
I choose you, imperfect destiny
All flesh, bone, skin, mouth, and heart
I choose you with all your flaws
And that twisted way of being
I choose you, imperfect destiny
All flesh, bone, and confusion
